That's a wee bit of an overreaction, don't you think? They had a manufacturing incident where a portion of the ingredients turned out to be harmful because of that one specific batch. The article isn't telling you that all pet food ever made is going to kill your pet.
I suppose when we had the spinach e-Coli scare, you quipped that the nice healthy spinach was causing vomiting and diarrhea. It's an isolated cause for a specific reason- you make it sound like they've systematically manufactured poison.

I took a lot of heat on the pet food thread about my utter contempt for the processed pet food industry. Well, maybe I'se ain't so stoopid after all.

Your prejudice notwithstanding, this has nothing to do with the "processed pet food industry", it has to do with one supplier and one batch of bad ingredient. Don't you think it's a little irresponsible to lead people to believe there's something wrong with pet food as a whole because of this one specific problem?
Thankfully, my dogs only eat dry food, so no worries here. I hope everyone else's are faring well, too.
